**Hello, I would like to suggest adding a feature that allows users to delete or remove unnecessary accounts from the account list. I currently have several unused accounts that I no longer need, but there doesn’t seem to be an option to remove them. It would be very helpful if you could consider adding a delete/remove function in a future update. Thank you for considering my suggestion!**

Hey there! Completely hear your ask here, and we’ve forwarded it up to the teams that could make this happen, for review.

While, in it’s current state, you’re not able to entirely remove your account in MetaMask, you can ‘Hide Account’ by selecting the 3 dots next to it in Extension or Mobile.

Keep an eye on future MetaMask releases for a potential implementation of this requested feature!

I don’t know if you can delete accounts already created but maybe MM can create a feature that allow you to hide those unused accounts.

There is already a feature to hide accounts on the browser extension. The process is explained by a Mod above

But that feature is not available in the iOS app. That’s what I want.
